Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I'm looking to replace my leaf suspension with coils in the rear. I just need some help, and yes I've done some searching... I know people put 4runner/surf diffs in the rear of earlier model hilux's, but in the 2000 model, is the rear diff wider? What diffs will be the same width? I'm actually runni...

Thanks for all the replies. I really appreciate that help. Sorry I didn't think of a stat dec!!

Can't get in touch with him. I've only got his ebay account name, so I tried contacting him but I never heard back. I didn't buy the engine on ebay though.

I bought and installed a new engine in my car, however, when I bought the engine back in May, I never got a receipt from the guy or anything. Do I stand any chance of getting the car blue slipped still?

I've gotta tow another car - just a light car, less that 1000kg probably. However, i'm just wondering whether i'll be able to with my car. It's a 3L pajero but running 35s with no reduction gearing. Reckon it'll work?

Ok, so I really like the look of the newer pajeros (NP, NS, NT) but I HATE that they're totally independant suspension. SO, what I want to know is, has anyone done, or looked into SAS conversions on these pajeros? Would it be hard? Am i being stupid? It would just be pretty sweet to see something ot...

I've got the NJ 3L V6 Auto with the smaller front diff. Agggeeeesss ago, before I bought it, i was looking into front lockers and I thought I remembered reading that someone had taken the RD110 locker for the 8" diff and fitted in to the smaller diff as in my car. I had a search and I can't fin...

Yeah it's a 3L auto. I've got 2 inch body and 2 inch spring lift already, so that's a start. What's a ball joint flip - can i do it myself? What is the difference between patrol and landcruiser offsets?

Got a NJ Pajero, and i want to know what i need to run 35 inch tyres? How much lift? Will i be able to use standard gearing? Will the axles be strong enough?

Got my pajero (94 NJ 3L Auto) and i am finding the fuel gauge very frustrating! While driving it will keep moving around, generally it'll show a difference of a quarter of the tank. Got in tonight and it was showing half full, then after a few minutes it went up to 3/4 full, then back down, and so i...

Got a 92 V6 Pajero running 33" MTRs - what tyre pressures should i be running for best wear and performance around town?

I just took an 89 hilux for a drive today and it had about 45 degrees (in both directions if that makes sense) of play in the steering. I was actually expecting that it would have power steering but it didn't, so i was curious, if i wanted to fix the problem, could i put power steering in it? How mu...

I have no idea what a sump gasket is! Apparently it needs changing - what does this involve? Will it be expensive?

What should i expect from a 2.8 hilux when accelerating? What would it be like compared to the LC75 diesel or even a sierra?

Just curious, is it possible to swap the little mirrors on a 92 dual cab for the bigger mirrors found on the trayback hiluxs (and landcruisers)? Has anyone done it - is it hard to do?

I'm thinking about bringing a car from QLD to NSW, what to i need to do? I don't really have any idea how the QLD system works, except that you need to get a RWC for the car?

I was looking at buying a Sierra, and when i spoke to the guy he said that it was not a Sierra, but a Samurai. Does anyone know what the differences are and whether parts between the two are going to be any different. The only thing i noticed was that it had auto locking front hubs which i wasn't so...

Gee whiz! I didin't expect it to be so expensive i must admit. I'm looking at buying a Sierra, it's got over 5" of lift with tyres and spoa but it's not engineered, so it would need to be done. This is in NSW btw.

Ok, so how much (approx) to get an engineer's certificate then? Thanks for replies so far

Do you need an engineer's certificate for a SPOA lift?

I'm looking at buying a sierra but i would like to hear what people think. It's a little strange as it's an 84 body bolted onto an 89 chassis with a carby Vitara 1.6. It has front and rear lockrights, however i found out that the rear has started making a strange noise and is apparently the pinion w...

Has anyone resprayed their sierra? How much would it cost?

I'm just curious to know whether the grill from a 94 sierra will fit an 84 sierra - the one with the vertical slats (hope this makes sense).

I've had a look around here and i can't see anything to help me :( I was looking at buying a sierra and one of the problems with it is that the fan for the heating and cooling is broken. Does anyone know how hard this would be to fix, or how much? Has anyone had a similar problem?
